where $y_{(A)ijklmr}$ was the carbon assimilation-related parameter, $(D:TW)_{kl}$ the effect of the *l*th time window in the *k*th date of measurement, and $\epsilon_{(A)ijklmr}$ the random error. To estimate adjusted entry means for carbon assimilation-related parameters of six barley inbreds, $G_i, ZS_j, S_m$ and $(G:S)_{im}$ were treated as fixed effects, as well as $D_k$ and $(D:TW)_{kl}$ as random effects.
The relationship between photosynthesis-related parameters and morphological or growth-related parameters of the inbreds was evaluated by Pearson’s correlation coefficient between adjusted entry means.
